The Skeletal System
11
periosteum: A dense layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of the joints.
Cartilage: Firm, whitish, flexible connective tissue found in various forms in the larynx and respiratory tract, in structures such as the external ear, and in the articulating surfaces of joints. It is more widespread in the infant skeleton, being replaced by bone during growth.
Joint: A structure in the human or animal body at which two parts of the skeleton are fitted together.
Ligament: A short band of tough, flexible, fibrous connective tissue that connects two bones or cartilages or holds together a joint.
Movable joint:a joint that moves
Immovable joint: a joint that does not move
Synovial fluid: Synovial fluid is normally a thick, straw-colored liquid found in small amounts in joints, bruises, and tendon sheaths.
compact bone:The compact bone is hard and does not have holes
Spongy bone: Bone in which the spicules form a latticework, with interstices filled with embryonic connective tissue or bone marrow
Osteoclasts: A large multinucleate bone cell that absorbs bone tissue during growth and healing.
Osteoblast: A cell that secretes the matrix for bone formation.
